Firefox does not use the options I select.

I opened the options window and selected for Firefox to open links in a new tab. It did so at one time but doesn't now. I also selected to open tabs last used on startup.

Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
* [[Preferences are not saved#w_user-js-file-overriding-preferences|'''User.js''' file overriding preferences]]
* DELETE ALL LINES in '''"user.js"''' file
Check and tell if its working.

Despite the newest Flip4Mac plugin being installed and Firefox recognizing it, and it is selected to play wmv files, Firefox does not use it.

I can not download newer themes. It continues to say So and so could not be installed because Firefox does not have the needed files. Also.. For the newer version, where is the tools option?

I am trying to download a new theme. Lava theme. However, it will not let me download that or any other theme for that matter.

The Firefox versions which come with many Linux distros have the default Mozilla Firefox updater disabled and use the distros built-in updater.

My table of contents does not use the entry style I select for words in the paragraph that have character styles applied to them in the chapter, so some of the letters are showing up as green, which is fine in the chapter but not in the TOC.

My table of contents does not use the entry style I select for words in the paragraph that have character styles applied to them in the chapter, so some of the letters, specifically parameters, are showing up green, which is fine in the chapter but not in the TOC. I can manually fix this in the TOC by changing the character style to none after the toc has been generated, but I don't want to do this.

Firefox does not print the target frame in PeopleSoft Enterprise or Campus Soultions Portals

When using PeopleSoft Enterprise Portal or Campus Solutions Portal Firefox does not print the target frame. PeopleSoft utilizes iframes and has indicated this is the technology path they will follow. On each page is a header, footer, and left menu. Content is displayed in the target after it is selected from the left menu. This issue prevents users from using the standard print preview or print functionality.

We need the standard print and print preview functionality that all of our end users are already familiar with to work. We have a large end user group that is frustrated this functionality is available in IE and Chrome, but not Firefox.

Identify Your iPad
http://www.ifixit.com/Info/ID-your-iPad
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.0.4. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
How to Upgrade to iOS 7
The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
Go into the iPad's Settings.
Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
To upgrade using iTunes:
First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
Now you are ready to begin the process:
If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.
 Cheers, Tom

Eclipse environment does not appear the options "Web Dynpro Project"

Hi all,
I installed the SAP NetWeaver 7.1 Composition Environment SP03
But in my eclipse environment does not appear the options "Web Dynpro Project" and not "Development Component Project".
That is, I can not do a Web Dynpro project
I have to do some more configuration in eclipse, for example, carry some plugin?
How to do this, please help me
Thanks,
Vivian

Hi,
         I think you are suffering from the problem below.
Problem Statement:
No Webdynpro Perspective is Visible
only perspectives available are
    Debug
    Resource(default)
    Team Synchronizing
How to Solve:
There are many ways that this kind of error can occur.
1.   It may occur due to "improper installation of NWDS"
How to Check and Resolve :    Is NWDS is displayed in intalled list in Control panel? If 'yes' then it is properly installed. If 'No' then reinstallation is needed.
2. It may occur due to "installation of Skeleton alone"
How to Check:
                                  you can check if your installation includes Web Dynpro by selecting
Help->Software Updates->Manage Configurations.
When installing Developer studio 7.1 you only get the bare eclipse installation (Skeleton). You have to add web dynpro and all, after the initial install is complete.
The installer installs the kernel of the Developer Studio. The kernel contains Eclipse and a few SAP additions, but is not equipped with the SAP features necessary for the Composition Environment. In order to install the required SAP features you have to install the SAP features.
           How to Resolve:
Updating the NWDS software will resolve the problem.
Go to Help->Software Updates->Find and Install. This will install the default SAP plugins that came with your NWDS CE 7.1 setup source and also the additional updates that are needed.

Firefox does not display the basic menu line File Edit View etc. How do I get this menu to show. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but that does not help

When I ask for help finding bookmarks, the answer tells me to click on bookmarks as shown in the illustration, but there is no such line displayed on my computer.

'''''"Firefox does not display the basic menu line File Edit View etc."''''': That is the Menu Bar; see below.
'''Menu Bar''' (File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help) Firefox 3.6.x versions allow the user to hide the Menu Bar. 
*Tap the ALT key or the F10 key, Menu Bar will display, click View, click Toolbars, click Menu Bar to place a check mark next to it, '''''OR'''''
*Press and hold the ALT key while pressing the letters VTM on your keyboard, then release the ALT key

Great exercise to document the problem like this. It got me thinking about how an app with modules would be different from an app that does not use modules. Solution: I moved the dummy reference of PersonPhotoView out to the main application file (as opposed to being inside the module) and it worked. I've probably been lucky not to have experienced this problem earlier, because for most other entities I have an instance attached to my model which is linked / compiled with the main application.

Firefox does not use the options I select.
